PROGRAM:

NAME

plowup - Simple upload manager for file sharing websites

SYNOPSIS

plowup [OPTIONS]... [MODULE_OPTIONS]... MODULE URL|FILE[:DESTNAME]...

DESCRIPTION

plowup is a command-line tool designed for automatic upload on file-sharing websites. It
acts like a web browser, retrieving pages and filling HTML forms.

Anonymous upload is not allowed by all sites, some of them may require authentication.
See specific module options below.

OPTIONS

Common options
-i, --interface=IFACE
If your machine has several network interfaces, force using IFACE interface.

-r, --max-retries=N
Set maximum retries for upload failures. Apply on module exit value: 1 (fatal
error), 3 (network error), 7 (captcha error). Default option value is 0 (no retry)
and applies for one single upload.

-t, --timeout=SECS
Cancel upload download after SECS seconds of waits. Apply on module exit value: 10
(temporary unavailable error). This error mainly occurs on remote upload
operations. Default option value is disabled (no timeout, infinite) and applies
for one single upload.

--cache=METHOD
Cache policy regarding module storage space. Each module is able to save data
(credentials, authentication session, or tokens) in order to be reused later.
Available values:
none : module storage file is deleted before each item processing. Temporary
directory is used.
session (default) : module storage file is deleted at the end of plowup execution.
Temporary directory is used.
shared : module storage file is global and located (in
~/.config/plowshare/storage/). It can be accessed by any other instance of plow*
scripts. Warning: There is no atomicity (or file locking) on concurrent access.

Example: Multiple file upload using a premium account. If supported by module,
login stage could be performed once.

Captcha options
--9kweu=KEY
Use 9kw.eu service to solve captchas.

--antigate=KEY
Use Antigate.com service to solve captchas.

--captchabhood=USER:PASSWORD
Use Captcha Brotherhood service to solve captchas.

--captchacoin=KEY
Use CaptchaCoin service to solve captchas.

--deathbycaptcha=USER:PASSWORD
Use Death by Captcha service to solve captchas.

--captchamethod=METHOD
Force specific captcha solving method. Available values:
imgur : upload image to Imgur.com service, print image url in console and prompt
for manual entering. Useful for NAS and embedded devices.
none : abort if captcha solving is requested (even if automatic solving service is
available).
online : use captcha solving website only (9kweu, Antigate, CaptchaBrotherhood,
CaptchaCoin or DeathByCaptcha account required).
fb : display image in framebuffer console and prompt for manual entering. Looks for
framebuffer viewers: fbi, fim. FRAMEBUFFER environment variable can contain device
file. Default is /dev/fb0.
nox : display image in console (text) and prompt for manual entering. Looks for
ascii viewers: img2txt, aview, tiv.
x11 : display image in an X11 window and prompt for manual entering. Looks for
viewers: display, feh, sxiv, qiv.

--captchaprogram=PROGRAM
Call external program or script for solving captchas. Provided executable can be
located in PATH environment variable.

Three arguments are given:
$1 module name (lowercase). For example: mediafire.
$2 image filename (with full path).
$3 hint or captcha type (string). For example: recaptcha, solvemedia or digits-4.

Return value (on stdout) and exit status:
0 : solving success. Captcha Word(s) must be echo'ed.
2 : external solver is not able to solve requested captcha. Let plowup continue
solving it normally (will consider --captchamethod if specified).
7 : external solver failed. Note: this exit code is eligible with retry policy
(-r/--max-retries).

Note: plowup legacy exit errors can also be returned, for example: 1 (fatal) or 3
(network).

Tuning settings
--max-rate=SPEED
Limit upload maximum speed in bytes per second. Suffixes are:
k for kilobytes (kB i.e. 1000),
M for megabytes (MB i.e. 1000^2),
K or Ki for kibibytes (KB or KiB i.e. 1024),
m or Mi for mebibytes (mB or MiB i.e. 1024^2).

--min-rate=SPEED
Limit upload minimum speed in bytes per second (for a delay of 30 seconds).
Suffixes are the same than --max-rate.

--temp-directory=DIRECTORY
Directory for temporary files: cookies, images, ...

--name=FORMAT
Format destination filename (applies on each file argument). Can be useful is you
want to append or prepend a string to all your files. Default format string is
"%f". Interpreted sequences are:

%% raw % character

%f destination (remote) filename

%g destination (remote) filename (without extension)

%G destination (remote) filename (without extension, greedy)

%h MD5 hash (32-digit hexadecimal number, lowercase letters)

%l source (local) filename

%m module name

%s file size (in bytes)

%x extension (without dot character) of %f (not greedy)

--printf=FORMAT
Print results (on stdout) in a given format (for each successful upload). Default
format string is "%L%M%u%n". Interpreted sequences are:

%% raw % character

%a admin url or admin code (rare case)

%A same as %a but url is escaped for JSON usage

%M empty if %a is empty, or alias to "#ADM %a%n".

%d delete url

%D same as %d but url is escaped for JSON usage

%L empty if %d is empty, or alias to "#DEL %d%n".

%f destination (remote) filename

%l source (local) filename

%m module name

%n newline

%s filesize (positive integer in bytes)

%t tabulation character

%u download url

%U same as %u but url is escaped for JSON usage

Logging options
-v, --verbose=LEVEL
Set output verbosity level:
0 none,
1 errors,
2 notice (default behavior),
3 debug,
4 report (very noisy, log HTML pages).

-q, --quiet
Alias for -v0. Do not print any debug messages.

Miscellaneous options
--no-color
Disables log messages (stderr only) output coloring.

--no-curlrc
Do not use curl config file (~/.curlrc).

--curlrc=FILE
Force using an alternate curl configuration file. Replaces ~/.curlrc if it exists.
This option has no effect when --no-curlrc is defined.

--no-plowsharerc
Do not consider any configuration file.

--plowsharerc=FILE
Force using an alternate configuration file (instead of per-user or systemwide
plowshare.conf). This option has no effect when --no-plowsharerc is defined.

--modules
Display all supported module names (one per line) and exit. Useful for wrappers.

-h, --help
Display main help and exit.

-H, --longhelp
Display complete help (with module options) and exit.

--version
Output version information and exit.
